Georgian and Victorian houses
Listed and period homes in the centre need discreet aerials and fixings that don’t damage old brick.

TV aerial fitters and engineers in Chertsey
Chertsey sits low by the Thames, with older houses around the town centre and newer estates spreading out towards Addlestone and Lyne. Being on low ground, it is one of the places where the height of an aerial makes a real difference to the picture.
Our aerial engineers often find that raising the aerial by a metre or two, or moving it from the back of the roof to the chimney, is enough to cure break-up that has lasted years. We test at different heights and positions before deciding, so you get the right result rather than the quickest one.
Chertsey also has a lot of period homes near Windsor Street and Guildford Street, where the roofs are old and the owners want the aerial out of sight. In those cases a loft aerial, a rear wall bracket or a discreet chimney fitting usually works. Our local TV aerial installers take care with old roofs and leave everything tidy.

Homes we work on in Chertsey
Each kind of Chertsey home brings its own aerial problems. These are the ones we see most.
Riverside bungalows
Low roofs with an open view. A loft aerial often works.
Village homes among trees
Ottershaw’s trees can block the aerial, and Freesat is the fallback.
Aerial notes for each part of Chertsey
What our engineers find on the roofs in each neighbourhood, from the jobs we do there.
Chertsey town
Homes: Georgian and Victorian houses and flats around Guildford Street and Windsor Street.
Aerial notes: Older buildings need careful fixings. Crystal Palace gives a good picture.
Chertsey Meads and riverside
Homes: Houses and bungalows near the Thames and the Meads.
Aerial notes: Open views across the meadows. Signal is usually strong.
Ottershaw

Chertsey aerial questions
Do you cover all of Chertsey?
Yes. Our engineers work right across Chertsey, including Chertsey town, Chertsey Meads and riverside, Ottershaw and Thorpe and Lyne.
Which transmitter do Chertsey aerials point at?
Most face Crystal Palace, about 19 miles east of Chertsey. It carries BBC London. Where trees or hills get in the way, Hannington, about 31 miles off to the west-south-west, can be the better choice, and it brings BBC South Today. We measure both.
Could my Chertsey aerial live in the loft?
Sometimes, but at this distance from the transmitter the roof tiles cost a lot of signal. Our engineer holds a meter up in your loft first, and says plainly when the aerial needs to go outside.
Does flooding near the Thames affect TV?
Water itself doesn’t, but damp gets into old cable and connectors. Replacing them usually cures crackling and lost channels.
Do you work in Ottershaw and Thorpe?
Yes, and Lyne, Longcross and Virginia Water.
